Remember to complete the course work!
Hello! I work in Continuing Education at Conestoga College. I am an RN for over 20 years, and I am working with Personal Support Workers in a certificate program and I also do teaching in my other job to people in health care. What I find gets misunderstood, is “eyes on the prize”. I feel like it is normal but students always want to JUMP to the assignment for their grades. I normally work in a hybrid platform or in person, and I feel like I can reinforce this with them. “You can’t go under it, you can’t go around it, you have to go through it”. If the students complete the course readings and don’t jump ahead, they do much better in the courses. I feel like EVERY TIME I teach, people just want the assignment or to get to the finish, we design courses so you practice and a then you apply your knowledge. When students get it, they get it. I have to constantly reinforce this with all my students and learners.
